Dr. Morbius: Guilty! Guilty! My evil self is at that door, and I have no power to stop it!
-
Robby the Robot: Morbius. Morbius!
Dr. Morbius: What?
Robby the Robot: Something is approaching from the southwest. It is now quite close.
[they run to the windows and look out, but see nothing]
Commander Adams: Could Robby be wrong?
Dr. Morbius: No. Never.
[an invisible force rips down the trees; Morbius closes the steel shutters over the windows]
Dr. Morbius: I feel sorry for you, young man.
Commander Adams: Feel sorry for your daughter, Morbius.
Altaira Morbius: It's listening.
[the monster pounds on the steel shielding, denting it]
Dr. Morbius: Alta, go into my study.
Commander Adams: You still refuse to face the truth.
Dr. Morbius: What truth?
Commander Adams: Morbius, that thing out there - it's *you*.
Dr. Morbius: You're insane. How else would you have led it here, where Alta must see you torn to pieces?
Commander Adams: You still think she's immune? She's joined herself to me, body and soul!
Altaira Morbius: Yes, and whatever comes, forever.
Dr. Morbius: Say it's a lie. Shout, let it hear you out there! Tell it you don't love this man!
Altaira Morbius: Not even if I could.
[the steel shielding begins to break]
Dr. Morbius: Stop it, Robby! Don't let it in! Kill it, Robby!
[Robby shorts out]
Commander Adams: It's no use. He knows it's your other self.
[steel shielding breaks; they run]
